Eno's production added space and subtle studio texture, and the rhythm section of Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz moved closer to funk without losing the band's angular edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake Me to the River, their slowed-down cover of Al Green, became the breakthrough, all hypnotic bass and David Byrne's tense, yearning vocal. Thank You for Sending Me an Angel opens the record at a gallop, while Found a Job is a sly, funny song about a couple who fix their relationship by making their own TV shows. The Big Country closes things with a wry look at America from an aeroplane window.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eByrne's lyrics are observational, deadpan and quietly anxious, and the band's interlocking parts already hint at the polyrhythmic adventures to come on Fear of Music and Remain in Light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA sharp, playful record that captures Talking Heads at the very moment they were becoming truly great, and one that rewards every return visit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57439083757873,"sku":"075992742528","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/1200x1200bb_a6f0025f-3577-4348-91c9-83fa9a666566.jpg?v=1794152035","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/talking-heads-more-songs-about-buildings-and-food-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
